Internet & Mobile World becomes GoTech World, home of the digital economy in Central and Eastern Europe

In Bucharest, on August 8, 2019, Internet & Mobile World, the largest business event in the region is reinventing itself, becoming GoTech World, a manifesto digitization for the entire business ecosystem.

The event that sets the tone for digitalization in the business environment in Romania and in the Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) region, has consolidated its identity in a wide rebranding process that reflects the digital solutions and innovative trends presented.

GoTech World is the ”home of the digital economy in Central and Eastern Europe”, the place where professionals from Romania and the region can find the perfect digital mix for their business needs. The event offers access to hundreds of B2B tech solutions, relevant and applicable insights from experts on different digital areas and a significant networking and networking opportunity.

”For several editions, IMWorld is no longer just about ”internet” and ”mobile” as it was originally built. Technology has evolved exponentially since 2012 and the event has grown with it. With the new identity we are pursuing two important goals. The first is to expand the event's sphere of influence to Central and Eastern Europe. In this respect, we have already taken important steps by attracting visitors and exhibiting companies from countries such as Hungary, Serbia, Germany, Moldova, Greece and so on. The second objective is the renewal of an older promise to contribute to the strategic acceleration of the digitization of the business environment through the relevant resources we bring to the event.”said Alexandru Măxineanu - Project Manager, GoTech World.

Since 2012, Internet & Mobile World has been reaching decision makers in Romanian companies with high-tech solutions and relevant information that support digitalization in business.

The 8th edition of the event, which takes place this fall (2-3 October) at Romexpo, includes a 7194 m² where B2B digital solutions will be showcased and 7 dedicated stages on which international and local experts will take to the stage: Main Stage, IT Ops Stage, Digital & E-commerce Stage as well as the scenes PRO: MarTech Internship, Security Internship, Java Internship and .NET Internship. The event is expecting more than 10,000 professionals this fall.

The exhibition area is divided according to specific areas of interest for various business needs, such as: Digital & E-Commerce, Developers, Business Software & Cloud, Infrastructure & Information Security, Devices & Internet of Things or Tech Startups.
